  1. I hope you're not seriously suggesting that because we've won back-to-back victories for probably the first time in the league under Souness, everyone should change their mind about him being the right manager and tuck into the humble pie. 69453[/snapback] Nope, just pointing out that when we do have a couple of good results, those posters whose only craic is "Souness out, rarrrrrr, splat, grrrr!" go missing.
  2. Just like the Souness backers go quiet when we have a loss and piss poor performance, like against Wigan you mean? I have been delighted by the last two wins (although all the match reports have suggested we were fortunate against West Ham), but I still want Souness out. We are still 10th, and are now essentially a one man team, and that man is injured too much. But I am sick of the argument; my case will be proven in May after what will have been a bitterly disappointing year. If I am wrong I will be glad, but I don't think I will be. 69443[/snapback] I don't remember going quiet after Wigan. 69444[/snapback] Well, I wasn't here then so I wouldn't know, but I have noticed you are pretty slow to post on this forum when we are in a run of poor results. I've almost completely stopped posting here as things seem to be at a complete impasse regarding those who would still give Souness time and those that wouldn't. Plus, I never comment on a match I haven't seen in real life or on the telly (in full). 69449[/snapback] That's bollocks about me not posting when we're on a bad run like. Nice try though. And I know you've stopped posting - you're one of the "vociferous Souness-Outers" I was referring to.

  4. Not just being pedantic here but weren't they evacuees during the Second World War? I'm just confirming this is the case to make sure I'm not losing my marbles as I read all the books when I was a bairn. 69389[/snapback] You might be right, they were 2nd world war evacuees in the film, although I don't remember that in the book; I thought they looked and acted like they were from the Edwardian era, from memory. The old professor was the original character from Victorian times, called Eustace iirc. 69412[/snapback] I think the old Professor is Digory or something (i.e. the lad out of 'The Magician's Nephew'). He brought an apple back from Narnia which grows into a tree which is then cut down and is made into the wardrobe which becomes a gateway to Narnia in 'The Lion....' . Eustace is the horrible nephew (of Edmund, Lucy et al) from 'The Voyage of the Dawn Treader' who truns out to be a 'good egg' in the end. Not that I read all the books about 3 times when I was younger or anything. Dweeb tbh. 69423[/snapback] No shit! Have you got a home-made Narnia timeline on your bedroom wall or something?
  5. If you like "sodden twots" and that sort of thing.
  6. Is it just me or do the most vociferous Souness-outers go missing after we've had a couple of good results. I don't just mean the "Souness Out" posts dry up, they actually disappear altogether. Not that I'm suggesting they've got nowt else to say like. As I said, just an observation.....
  7. They're a poor side though. That's a N-O exclusive. 69414[/snapback] The story was actually broken on Toontastic though, IIRC.
  8. Lewis was clearly a man ahead of his time, the last battle is beginning to feel quite prophetic now. 69415[/snapback] Is this the A-Level English thread or what?
  9. Louis Theroux's Call of the Weird is easy reading but interesting enough. If you like sport biographies there's that new George Best book about Hard Tackles.
  10. Am I right in thinking that peasepud is introducing women that he knows to the board in the vain hope of making himself look like some kind of ladies' man?
  11. Are you suggesting Souness has made it up?

    Can I just say, if you do win this thing tomorrow, would you please call yourselves champions of the world. If only for my personal amusement.
  13. I know I'm a bloke so I'm at a disadvantage in judging this, but that strikes me as being about as sexy as a fishy minge tbh.
  14. And the inaugural "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" award goes to........
  15. I already knew that though 69025[/snapback]
  16. If it's any consolation, I'm off on holiday today. And I'm also not hungover.
  17. I tell you what, with that beer gut you're sporting at the minute, you've got a fucking cheek! 68443[/snapback] You're talking to Mancy again I hope! 68449[/snapback] Sadly not!
  18. that would have took some doing 68433[/snapback] How so, I was talking to mancy, not you, periscope! 68436[/snapback] I was talkin about the fact you're 14foot wide tbh 68441[/snapback] I tell you what, with that beer gut you're sporting at the minute, you've got a fucking cheek!
